Learn more about Agricultural Land Easements, a federal program that pays farmers to continue working the land through a conservation easement. Live Oak Farm in Vermilion Parish will be the first ALE site in Louisiana! https://t.co/4Rk84Ym9g6

Yesterday was a joyous day for the Land Trust and our partners! After 8 years of diligent work by so many parties, we have signed the agreement with the Godchaux family to place Live Oak Farm under conservation easement.

[Land Trust for Louisiana @LandTrustforLA]

As stewards of the easement at Live Oak Farm, we’ll be working with the family year after year to see that rice and wildlife continue to thrive at the farm, as they have for 100 years. THANK YOU to the Godchaux family for their generous and patient involvement!

Happy first day of Spring in Tangipahoa Parish. There's nothing more delightful this time of year than the gentle breezes & rolling hills of Pine Knoll Farm. The property of one of our founders, Dr. Jay Addison & family, and also the site of our very first conservation easement!
